    Why It Should Get Picked Up: I found this novel a while ago, by accident, while reading the manhwa. From the plot it intrigued me but there are as for now only 63 chapters and it took me enough. Very interesting and pretty but also original, of course, the usual clichés (Return of the 8th Class Mage & The Great Mage Returns After 4000 Years) are present but it is still an enjoyable work all in all. They are also personal tastes that vary from person to person of course! I hope someone will give it a chance and decide to translate it, also considering that the story is already complete with 17 volumes...
    Description:

    Henry Morris was an 8-circled wizard who was a legend- one of the founding fathers who helped his friend become the king of a unified empire. After the son took over the throne, Henry was executed with the false accusation of leading a rebellion against the empire. He then wakes up in the body of young Henry Morris, the eldest of a baron family, who also happened to have the same name. Henry turns his life around by again relearning magic and also swordsmanship in order to become the first magic swordsman, all for the sake of revenge.

    Its actually a good series. Regarding the comparisons, using return of the 8th class magician is not a good one since it came later than this. Also on the cliche point, Lucas deluded and deceived Frey into thinking they're the same person which is dumb cuz possessing someone doesnt equate to reincarnation. A typical stupid flaw seen in virtually all possessive rebirth series where the mcs think they've become the person they're possessing. It gets even more ironic since he later revealed he's not Frey. Henry's series doesn't have those cliche flaws.
